The attack was fully captured on audio, some of which was not released to the public due to its graphic nature. Occasionally, visitors choose poorly and become one with the bear as self-described Bear Whisperer Timothy Treadwell and his girlfriend did in 2003. Bear viewing present and remote is extremely popular, with Brooks Camp being the most popular destination. It also has significant wildlife, particularly salmon and brown bears.

Though they are not formal webicorders, their output can best be accessed via the AVO interactive Webicorder map or on any of the Katmai volcanoes home page, zooming in, and clicking on any of the listed seismic stations listed from SW – NE: ACH, KABU, KBM, KCE, KCG, KAKN. There are numerous other seismographs in the Katmai region. The Katmai webcam is not currently operating. The Alaska Volcano Observatory monitors multiple volcanoes in the Katmai group with both webicorders and webcams. Periodic explosions continued through 1974.

Trident recently erupted, building a dome in 1953, producing a series of thick andesitic lava flows 1953 – 1968, and building a new summit cone. Reports of historical activity have been disputed in a pair of papers around 1999. Like Martin, Mageik has a small phreatic crater with vigorous fumarolic activity. This portion of the volcanic front is permanently glaciated, which makes analysis of what is going on in the craters of the volcanoes problematic. Image courtesy Katmai National Park Information Page, Apr 2016 Looking toward the volcanic front in Katmai National Park. As such, I will be repeating much of what I wrote previously about the general area and tectonics in this post. Mageik is only 7 km NE from previously discussed Martin. Volcanoes are very closely spaced along this portion of the volcanic front, the most closely spaced on the Alaska Peninsula. Somewhere along the line, we will take a look at the remaining volcanoes of the cluster, Griggs, Katmai and Novarupta. We have previously discussed volcanoes near and around the Katmai cluster in an introduction to Katmai in 2014, and neighboring Martin / Alagogshak in 2022. They form part of the Katmai cluster of volcanoes. Mageik and Trident are a pair of stratovolcanoes either side of Katmai Pass at the head of the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes in Katmai, Alaska. Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes extends off the image to the north (top) above Novarupta. Lava flows at center are from Trident, Novarupta is top center. Neighboring Mageik is clearly marked left of center. Satellite view of Katmai Pass and the volcanic front.
